Translations:Proyecto Hipertensión Pulmonar/4/en

The starting point of this project is the work carried out at the Harvard Medical School in Boston –partner institution of the MACbioIDi project– by the researchers Raúl San José Estepar, Ph.D., and Jorge Onieva Onieva, M.Sc. in the context of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease. Their team has developed and integrated in 3D Slicer the Chest Imaging Platform () which provides a whole set of tools for computed tomography image analysis, including modules for lung segmentation and vessel and airway reconstruction. It also helps to extract characteristics of the pulmonary vasculature (phenotyping).
